STERILE: My Bottom Is A Zombie

Chapter 28: (STERILE: Vaccine?)

DUAGHS

"The video!"

When Hideo and Leony are digging up deep information about a new virus, suddenly the door of the check room is broken by someone. The door was not broken by hand, but by foot. The man kicked the door with all his might until it dislodged the hinge.  Maybe after this, he will be fined for damaging the Atlantis facility.

"Mark?!" hardik Hideo and Leony.

"I came to see the state of my best friend whose good looks are several levels below me."

Leony then rolled his eyeballs, tired of Mark's narcissistic nature. "Then you're the most handsome, aren't you?"

"Well, that-you know."

Hearing Mark's reply, Leony regretted asking. Both Leony and Hideo threw eyes at each other, then ended up shaking their heads.

Mark was acting indifferent to the two faces staring at him in disbelief. He ignored them as if the expression of the two people was very normal, even though he had just made his best friend want to drown his face because of his narcissistic nature. Mark stepped a bit hastily, then approached Hideo. After looking at each other, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're a zombie or a human?" mark asked around and relaxed, because he knew that Hideo was harmless.

"Of course I'm still human. Don't pretend to be stupid" Hideo said.

Mark laughed instead.

"I'll just test you. Who knows you can't answer. If you can't return my words, it means you're a zombie." Mark pulled one of the chairs, then sat down. He observed Leony who was struggling with research equipment. "May I say something? If you're out there too long-you'll never have a boyfriend. You could be an old virgin."

"I'm not like you who love to show love" Leony replied from under his microscope.

"Then-what did you find, Leo?" ask Hideo.

"I can't say it, because it's a secret."

"Consecrated? I wonder what's inside my body. Why don't I change after being bitten by a zombie and I'm fine?- then you say this is a secret?!"

Hideo really can't believe it. Just now he was faced with a terrible event and almost faced death, then ended with 'hey, I am still a human.' Then there were millions of questions in his mind that wanted to be answered immediately, but the answers were kept secret. Really sucks.

"What a sure----at-the-moment I can guarantee that you're okay, Hideo. I found no sign that your DNA would mutate into a zombie. That means you're immune to the zombie virus. You can calm down now."

"He's immune?" Mark saw Hideo from head to toe. "Hey, did you inject the vaccine into Hideo? Give it to me too!" pinta Mark on Leony.

"Right now we're just focusing on zombie recovery, not yet at the vaccine manufacturing stage. I need to check Hideo's blood further in the research room and tell Professor Hartman. The STERIL team must remain vigilant or this incident will happen again, because I cannot guarantee you will survive this time."

Hideo was silent for a moment. There is a mind that is still stuck. What was inside her body that she was immune to virus attacks? If looked back again, he did not consume strange foods. He always maintains a diet, exercises, takes vitamins and avoids alcoholic beverages. Hideo doesn't smoke either.

Is this immunity formed due to healthy living?

"Ha-ah, it turns out you're okay. I thought you were going to be a zombie" said Mark.

"If I were a zombie, the first thing I'd bite would be you" Hideo replied.

Mark got up, then took a few steps back, "hey, hey, wait a minute! It's not that easy you can bite me." Mark raised both hands, then bent them, so that the muscles in the upper arm bulged. "I am strong. Mark is very strong."

"You're strong if you can beat me in a 1-on-1 fight, but unfortunately you can't. In the last fight, you gave up" Hideo said with a laugh.

"Be careful when you talk! We're a series, because I managed to punch you in the last seconds."

"But when you punch me, the time is up and it doesn't count."

"You want to see my abilities? Come on, we're dueling outside!" get Mark excited. Mark raised both hands in a punching position. He tries to hit Hideo, but Hideo manages to fend off with just one hand.

"Can you not be noisy?! Your voice will awaken the Throne." Leony who initially wanted to ignore Hideo and Mark to continue his observation was disturbed. "Geez-geez, Mark, you're gonna have to pay a fine for breaking my practice room door!"

Mark shrugged his shoulders.

Leony walked over to the door and found the door had been broken. One part of the hinge has been removed from its place. Fortunately the glass on the door was thick enough that it could not break so easily. However, the owner of Atlantis was a very meticulous and fussy person. If there is one part of the building that is slightly damaged, then the owner will nag.

In the building there are several rules, among them regarding the facilities of Atlantis. The owner of the building is very strict in maintaining assets. He said that Atlantis and its contents had been registered in insurance. This is important to do, because if something happens to Atlantis someday, then the place will get a disbursement of compensation funds.

Unlike the case if someone intentionally damages goods or objects there, then he must pay a fine with a sum of money that is quite expensive. So far no one has dared to damage things intentionally, except Mark. Either because it is too hot or the power is too big, inevitably Mark exposed to the rules of violation. Unfortunately Mark.

"Mark, you have to pay the fine!" pinta Leony's.

"Well, I'll go to the lobby to pay for it." Mark was disappointed. "After my money was taken for Jilly---now needs to pay compensation instead. My money's been robbed."

"Whose fault is it?" knock Leony with a sharp dimming eye.

"I. Satisfied?!"

Hideo chuckles.

Mark heard Hideo laughing. Although the laughter was faint, Mark's sense of hearing had been honed to be able to capture and analyze sounds. Mark is disturbed and he intends to prank his best friend. He then clenched his hands to punch Hideo in the shoulder. Unfortunately, this intention was not done once he saw the figure of a blonde, pale and long, dangling past his best friend's arm.

"That's the Throne, Lord Altar's son or someone else?"

As a man who was easily attracted to the opposite sex, Mark saw something different on the figure in Hideo's arms. In Mark's eyes, that figure was extremely sweet. His sleeping body looked petite, in stark contrast to Hideo's body. He had met the son of the Altar Master before. Just once. Mark was convinced that the Throne was still pale, and today Mark assumes something was different.

"Of course he's the Throne, son of Mr. Altar," replied Leony.

Being distracted by the noise, slowly the eyelids of the Throne opened. The pair of pale eyeballs finally began to work, capturing the image of the object one by one. When the Throne awoke, the first one he saw was Hideo. The throne still did not remember the events before he went to sleep, therefore he only fell silent in a daze.

"Um, Deo." The throne rubbed his eyes to see more clearly.

"You awake, baby?" ask Hideo in a soft tone.

"Um, Tha .. already .. wake up."

Throne nodded. He was happy to hear Hideo's voice. Peaceful feeling. Until the moment when the voice of a person enters the sense of hearing, the Throne is confused by it.

The throne places the index finger on its own lips. He kept watching Mark. Maybe if his mind was working normally, he would ask 'why is Mark asking like that?' Sangggu darling, the thought is still stored far into his subconscious and has not been spoken.

"Now, Tha. Um." The throne again dropped its head on Hideo's shoulder. Both of his hands were coiled around his lover's stomach, comforting himself.

"Ouh, you've been so sweet over time. You're even sweeter than my ex." Mark then brought his face closer to the Throne, "how about you leave Hideo, then go on a date with me? I'll give you whatever you want."

Not wanting to lose his chance, Mark blinked one eye.

Mark the playboy. His head is huge. Maybe Mark is tired of living for daring to tease the Throne in front of Hideo. You can imagine how red the man's face was when his lover was seduced by his own best friend.

"That-don't. Tha .. mau .. sama Deo."

"How dare you tempt the Throne! Stay away from my girlfriend, you playboy!" Hideo pushes Mark away, but his best friend becomes more and more.

"That's for me, yeah!"

"No way!"

Hideo kicks Mark's leg and Mark retaliates.

"I'm more handsome than you, Hideo-so give me the Throne!"

"Speak with my fists! If you insist it means you're looking to die!"

Hideo abdicates the Throne and immediately turns to Mark. Within seconds, the two men of the rank of 'Commander' had already made the Leony practice room a battle arena. They fight, but they don't really fight. Yes, you could say like two children who are fighting for a toy, the difference is they are fighting over the Throne.

Hideo throws a fist, then Mark fends it off.

Mark kicked Hideo, but Hideo shifted the upper body so that the kick was not hit.

The sound of tubs was heard throughout the room due to the impact resulting from the contact of their bodies.

"Stop fighting! Oh, my God, you're like little kids!" shouts Leony.

"Come, Deo! Deo .. great!" The throne laughed while clapping in joy.

"You shouldn't provoke your lover to a fight, Throne."

"Um, why?" The throne tilted his head, not understanding, then he came back cheering. "Deo .. great. Come on Deo .. keep going! Haha. Waw, cool!" The throne is very happy. He even jumped up and down.

"Say I stop fighting!"

Mark and Hideo ignore Leony.

The noise in Leony's practice room has caught Jilly's attention. At that moment Jilly was passing around the corridor, hearing a noise, he approached. Jilly continued to stand in the doorway without any intention of wanting to enter or leave. The sword in his grasp was left fixed on its sheath.

"1-sama," he commented as Hideo and Mark each hit 1 punch.

"2 for ... Hideo," he said when Hideo punched Mark in the stomach.

"Already, ah. No. .. interesting," said Jilly again as she wanted to leave.

"Jilly!" The throne that saw Jilly called and approached him.

"There ... what, Throne?" ask Jilly expressionlessly.

"Come .. play!"

"Hi-deo ... how?"

"Deo also .. is playing with ... Mark's." Mark."

"Hm, so?" Jilly looked towards the two men who were being separated by Leony. "It seems .. they ... are not playing, Throne."

"Um," The Throne shook its head. "They .. main. So ... come ... we also .. play."

"alright. Come on, we .. play."

"Take it! Come .. play!" The throne followed Jilly. He walked while jumping a little. "You want to play ... What, Jilly?"

"How to play .. swords. I'll .. teach you to play the sword."

"Yeyey! Asik! Tha .. play with the sword!" Thrones cheering in joy. "Come, play. Play the same Tha."

****

Jilly stepped down the corridor. He had just ushered the Throne into his room after they had been playing with swords. Earlier, the Throne said it wanted to play, so Jilly served it. Consciously or not, Jilly actually taught the sword technique to the Throne, as his teacher had taught him first.

At the intersection, Jilly runs into Mark. Both Mark and Jilly stopped.

"Mark .. You're handsome" Jilly said suddenly.

Mark was surprised, because Jilly did not usually say well, let alone praise him directly. Mark pulled the corner of his lips up. Her hairless chin is caressed dear.

"Clearly! I'm handsome from birth." Mark chuckled softly.

"But lie."

Mark's smile faded.

"You fool .. for losing to ... Hideo," said Jilly. As he passed Mark, one corner of his lips lifted up, cynical.

"W-Did he just laugh at me? Hey, you just made fun of me, right?! Fuck, zombies!" Mark's mouth opened and closed unable to retaliate.
